Our San Diego Trip 2012

After spending 4 nights at Disneyland we hopped about an Amtrak and headed down the coast to San Diego. We stayed at a cool hotel that was a two block walk from Mission Beach and it was awesome. Having not been able to swim in the warm ocean since I was a kid I was super stoked to get there and get bowled over by the waves. It seems Cohen is just like his Dad as he loved playing in the waves and all he wanted to do was swim in the ocean; the bad part was Kyah preferred swimming in the pool.

While we were in San Diego we went to Seaworld and I must say Seaworld was a huge disappointment after visiting Disneyland; next time we will go to the zoo or spend an extra day at the beach! We also rented cruiser bikes and rode down the boardwalk and we were happy to find out that it looked like we were staying close to the funnest beach. The kids really enjoyed the bike riding, especially Kyah who is a bike riding fiend.
A few things I noticed while down there was that there is a crap load of sports on the TV's, everything from woman's college volleyball to the NFL and there were people in the bars watching all of them. The other cool thing was the food. We got some damn good Mexican food while down there and I had the best ribs ever at Starkey's BBQ in Mission Beach. The food was so good at Starkey's we went back the following night again and I had an awesome burger and Chelsey said they had the best pulled pork sandwich she has ever had. The only thing we would do different next time is rent a car as the cabbie from the Amtrak station took us for a ride and we are pretty sure it happened on the way to Seaworld too. The random pictures are at the link below and I will post some videos soon along with the one of Cohen's Jedi training. When you see the pictures of the whales splashing and think Cohen is in the front row you are correct, he left his seat so he could be right up front to get soaked.

THIS IS THE LINK TO THE PICTURES
